Summary

With the increasing demand for new apps and capabilities, Australian bank NAB has partnered with Bugcrowd to enhance its security through a crowdsourced bug bounty program. As one of Australia's largest financial institutions, NAB aims to make banking safe, easy, relationship-led, and long-term by delivering sustainable outcomes for customers, colleagues, and the community. Proactive cybersecurity measures are vital in today’s hyperconnected environment where new threats are constantly emerging, according to Nick McKenzie, Executive Enterprise Security at NAB. The program will complement NAB's internal security resources with Bugcrowd's team of researchers, enabling the bank to uncover and remediate vulnerabilities faster, while also attracting a wider pool of ethically-trained security researchers from across the globe.
